Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index can predict postoperative delirium and hospital length of stay in elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.

11 To date, only one study has found the association between GNRI and delirium did not reach statistical significance in the coronary intensive care unit, in contrast to our study. 23 The reason for this inconsistency is likely because the incidence of delirium (9%), as measured by the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist, is somewhat lower than that observed in our study (17%).
